8.4.3 TRIKUTU FORMULA (Tryusana)

This web site leans heavily on the excellent book Practical Ayurveda: Secrets for Physical, Sexual & Spiritual Health by Atreya. If you want to practice Ayurveda in everyday life, we strongly suggest that you buy "Practical Ayurveda" from Amazon (USA).

Trikutu consists of long pepper (pippli), black pepper and ginger (sunthi) combined together in a more balanced was than each would be on its own. This is an excellent digestive formula for kapha and vata types, and for pitta persons with low agni (digestive fire). Trikutu promotes agni and increases pitta. It helps eliminate gas, bloating, colic pain, constipation, and other digestive complaints. It can be used safely every day without any debilitation effects. Ayurveda uses trikutu in many formulas to aid in the assimilation of the other ingredients. Regular use increases the absorption of vitamins and nutrients. Dose: 450 mgs with meals
